At Pentair, sustainability is essential to our business strategy and we recognize the opportunity for our greatest impact and growth is through solutions that help address the world’s water challenges. We also recognize that it is important to be responsible stewards of the planet’s resources in our own operations. I am proud to announce that Pentair was recently recognized by Business Intelligence Group in three different award categories, winning both the 2025 “Sustainability Leadership Award” as an organization and “Sustainability Product of the Year Award” for the Manitowoc NEO Ice Machine, as well as being recognized as a finalist for the “Sustainability Squad Award”.
The recognition of the “Sustainability Leadership Award” is a testament to Pentair’s forward-thinking approach and outstanding accomplishments towards our goal of Making Better Essential. Our recent sustainability achievements are detailed in the 2024 Sustainability Report, and include reaching our water withdrawal, greenhouse gas emissions, and product sustainability scorecard targets, well ahead of our 2030 goal. We continue to push our sustainability strategy forward with new Sustainability Strategic Targets aligned to key areas of sustainability impact for Pentair, including water stewardship, greenhouse gas emissions reduction, and product design for sustainability.
As we recognize that our products represent our greatest opportunity to reduce environmental impact, we are especially proud to have won the “Sustainability Product of the Year Award” for the Manitowoc NEO Ice Machine. The Manitowoc NEO ice machine by Pentair Water Solutions is a notable step forward in the commercial ice industry by improving energy efficiency, water efficiency, and durability. The NEO sets a new industry standard for sustainable design, innovation and ice quality through the integration of water filtration – enhancing ice quality and improving energy efficiency by reducing scale build up. It also provides the ability to make ice only when it’s needed to help avoid ice and water waste while utilizing a lower greenhouse gas refrigerant. We’re honored to be recognized for this innovative product!
Leadership doesn’t happen without a great team, so in addition to the award for Sustainability Leadership, we are thrilled to be recognized as a finalist in the “Sustainability Squad Award” category. Pentair’s Sustainability team is a critical force in advancing our mission to help the world sustainably move, improve and enjoy water, life’s most essential resource. In addition to the sustainability team, I want to thank Pentair’s nearly 10,000 employees for our milestone accomplishments in 2024, and for continuing to advance sustainability to achieve our next set of targets.
I’m incredibly honored that Business Intelligence Group has recognized Pentair for our positive sustainability impact. I’m proud of our achievements and even more excited about the incredible opportunities ahead.
